The Second Volume of The Case of Cases, Chapter 18: Jia Shao Hua's Lust

  Uh... The additional 250 will be delivered tomorrow at noon... So fast... Next time, the additional update will be at 500... 250 is indeed a good number...

  My body is undergoing changes, these changes are not what my previous body had.

  "Xiao Jiu!" I rushed to the bedside and grabbed Xiao Jiu's hands, his face still flushed red with anger, his eyes wide open.

  "Xiao Jiu, I've recently become stronger, my hearing has improved, I walk faster, and my reflexes have quickened. What's going on?"

  Xiao Jiu's eyes, which had been wide with wonder, gradually returned to normal. Although the flush on his face hadn't faded, his expression became more relaxed. He furrowed his brow: "It should be my internal energy. You may not understand how to cultivate it, but since my internal energy is a part of my body, it will naturally flow through your meridians without you realizing it, enhancing your strength and agility. My body was trained for martial arts, so I have keen hearing and agile movements. Adding that to your own reflexes, you would feel like your reactions are faster than before."

  "So that's how it is. Then can I give you some inner energy?"

  Xiao Jiu's eyes showed a hint of emotion, his long eyelashes trembling slightly in the candlelight before he lowered his gaze: "My body is still young, at least I have to wait until I'm sixteen."

  "Madam originally had extremely strong internal energy." Xiao Ruo sheathed her sword and stood at the edge of the round table, with goose feathers covering her head. "At sixteen years old, it's probably impossible to fully inherit that internal energy."

  "Ah?" Let go of Xiao Jiu, I sat down beside him with a bit of frustration, "I don't need to..."

  "Go ahead and use it."

  "Huh?" I was a bit skeptical if I had misheard, and turned my head to look at Xiao Jiu, who leaned on my arm: "Let Qiu Xuan teach you how to circulate your breath, you can also defend yourself."

  "Rubbing his chin: 'Aren't you afraid I'll master the art of walking away?'"

  Xiao Jiu glanced at me and burrowed into his quilt: "Then remember to take me with you." After that, he fell asleep facing the wall.

  Looking at Xiaoyao, she also had a lost expression. Shrugging her shoulders, she went to sleep.

  "By the way, Xiaoyao, would you mind picking up the goose feathers?"

  Xiao Ruo puffed up her face and stormed out of the door. Alas, as the Protecting Country Lady in the Protecting Country Manor, I truly have no status.

  Nangong Qiuyue has been by my side ever since that night, just as he said. However, this doesn't feel comfortable at all. Many times, he looks at me with a researching gaze, making my hair stand on end, as if I'm being treated like an alien.

  Of course, sometimes he is not there either, and I have found the rule of his absence. Every Sunday, he will leave the Guardian Temple for a day, and then on Monday, he will come back with a lot of intelligence. Of course, when he is not there, Xiao Jiu is there again...

  But I suddenly feel that life without Nan Gong is actually pretty good.

  Because of Jia Mingkai's matter, I was at peace for a few more days. As the saying goes, "the more you do, the more mistakes you make; if you don't do anything, you won't make any mistakes." I tried to avoid conflicts and disputes as much as possible. But I didn't expect that this peace would be short-lived, and what broke it was an invitation card.

  The invitation in the envelope was very ordinary, a piece of paper that could be bought for a penny, but this invitation was from Jia Mingkai himself, and it was delivered by his son Jia Shaohua.

  "Jia Shao, have some tea." Etiquette must still be observed thoroughly.

  Jia Shao's arrival made Xiao Ruo, who normally didn't want to see me, appear. Mainly because Nangong went out early to take care of something and she wasn't at ease with me. These two days, Nangong has been going out frequently, I don't know what he's doing.

  Xiao Ruo stood beside me, filled with tension and vigilance.

  Jia Shao is elegant and refined in appearance, with a charming and carefree air about him. However, judging from his looks alone, Jia Shao truly resembles a respectable gentleman, perfectly embodying the phrase "a wolf in sheep's clothing".

  "Sister, after that day, I went back and reflected for a long time." Jia Shao's face was serious, "This act of kidnapping someone in broad daylight was indeed wrong, from now on my actions will need your guidance and correction, sister."

  "I dare not, as long as you think more about the family's face when doing things."

  Jia Shao nodded: "Elder sister is right, that day Father was also furious, from now on I will be more careful and cautious in doing things."

  "Be careful?" Funny, "Are you planning on robbing people with a knife later?"

  "Big sister is laughing, how dare little brother still try to force himself on a civilian girl? Father must break little brother's leg."

  Looking at Jia Shaohua's smile makes me think he might just do it.

  "Invitation cards have also been sent to Sister Zhang, and there will be wonderful performances at Father's birthday banquet tomorrow night."

  "Alright, I'll come with a gift." Why don't you go and freeload?

  "Moreover, Father has already obtained an imperial decree from His Majesty, requesting that you, Junyu Servant Lang, take charge of the banquet for Father's birthday."

  "What!" I sat up with a start, "Let Chunyu cook tomorrow?"

  "Yes." Jia Shaohua also stood up, "That day, Chun Yu Shilang's seafood banquet stunned the audience, so Father asked His Majesty to grant permission and invited Chun Yu Shilang to take charge of the main kitchen."

  Jia Shao finished speaking, and Taohua's eyes were full of smiles. Damn it, I'm not deaf, he even mentioned the Emperor twice. What's going on with Xuan Yuan Yifei? How could he agree to Jia Mingkai's request?

  "Then I'll be troubling Secretary Xin tomorrow night, younger brother takes his leave."

  "Good, please."

  Pinching the invitation, with fingers rubbing, Jia Shao walked by my side, sighing at the quiet and elegant environment of the Hu Guo Fu. Originally, I was going to let the butler send Jia Shao off when we reached the fork in the road, but unexpectedly, the distant sound of the guqin floated out again, the sound of the guqin intermittent, then the sound of the sheng also followed, the guqin and sheng constantly merging, from disorder to harmony. It was Liu Ruoyin's "Butterfly".

  "This tune is really special!" Jia Shao exclaimed, stopping in his tracks. "Even Hua Lele can't play a tune as special as this one."

  Nonsense, of course what I teach is special.

  "I wonder which talented and beautiful woman can play such a wonderful melody?" Jia Shao's eyes narrowed, his wolfish nature unchanged. I lowered my face: "Jia Shao, do you think the Guardian Manor would have female concubines?"

  "Ah!" Jia's mouth opened wide, "Younger brother was impolite, it turns out that you are Sister's Shilang, younger brother was impolite, take leave, take leave."

  "I won't send it." I turned and left, just as Chunyu came running towards me from a distance. Since that time he went shopping, he hadn't worn those fancy clothes or applied fragrant powder again. Those fine robes were inconvenient for cooking on the one hand, and on the other hand, he himself seemed to not want to pretend anymore.

  He wore a light green changshan with the sleeves rolled up, revealing the white lining underneath. His long hair was casually tied back with a chopstick, and he still had an apron wrapped around his body, looking like he just came out of the kitchen.

  "Master! Master!" Chunyu rushed to the front of me, panting, his fox-like eyes shining with a urgent color in the sunlight, "It's bad! It's bad! It's broken!"

  "What's broken? What broke?"

  "It was that, that..." Chun Yu suddenly stopped talking and looked at me with a guarded expression, his face slightly darkened, clearly somewhat angry.

  What's going on? I turned to look at him and found that Jia Shao Hua hadn't left yet! And he was staring at Chun Yu with a strange expression.

  Shameless! He actually hit on me!

  "This must be the Chunyu Shilang, right? Cousin, you're really lucky." He said with envy, his eyes fixed on Chunyu without blinking.

  I immediately said in a low voice: "Xiaoyu, see the guest off!"

  "Yes!" Xiao Ruo pushed Jia Shao Hua forward without any politeness, and Jia Shao Hua also had a sense of self-awareness. He bowed to me: "Then I'll take my leave." After finishing speaking, he looked at Chun Yu again, then gazed in the direction of the piano and flute sounds, his face revealing an infatuated and enchanted expression, probably imagining the appearance of Yuan Chen and Li Ge.
